En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate, not a change to state law. It recognizes the C-130J Super Hercules, an aircraft manufactured by Lockheed Martin in Marietta, Georgia, for winning a 2025 Georgia Chamber of Commerce manufacturing award and for its long history of production in the state. The resolution highlights facts such as the Marietta facility's 5,600 Georgia employees, its $4.5 billion annual economic impact, its use of more than 350 Georgia-based suppliers, and the fact that every C-130J since 1954 has been built in Marietta. It formally commends Lockheed Martin and directs the Secretary of the Senate to distribute copies of the resolution to the company, the public, and the press.
